OET-LV And_she/it_said the_Pəlishtiy are_on_you Oh_Shimshvōn/(Samson) and_he_awoke from_sleep_of_his and_he/it_said I_will_go_out as_time on_time and_I_will_shake_myself_free and_he not he_knew if/because_that YHWH he_had_departed from_with_him.
OET (OET-RV) Then she said, “The Pelishtim are here to get you, Shimshon!” He woke up and thought to himself, “I’ll escape like all the other times and I’ll shake myself loose.” But he didn’t know that Yahweh had left him.

go_out (Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said Pelishtim [are]_on,you Shimshvōn/(Samson) and,he_awoke from,sleep_of,his and=he/it_said go_out as,time on,time and,I_will_shake_myself_free and=he not knowing that/for/because/then/when YHWH left from,with,him )
Samson is describing one event before describing another event that would precede it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they happened. Alternate translation: [I will shake myself and go out like time upon time]

כְּפַ֤עַם בְּפַ֨עַם֙
(Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said Pelishtim [are]_on,you Shimshvōn/(Samson) and,he_awoke from,sleep_of,his and=he/it_said go_out as,time on,time and,I_will_shake_myself_free and=he not knowing that/for/because/then/when YHWH left from,with,him )
Samson is using a common expression to mean that he would do what he had done previously. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [like all the other times] or [as I did before]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְאִנָּעֵ֔ר
(Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said Pelishtim [are]_on,you Shimshvōn/(Samson) and,he_awoke from,sleep_of,his and=he/it_said go_out as,time on,time and,I_will_shake_myself_free and=he not knowing that/for/because/then/when YHWH left from,with,him )
Samson seems to be saying that he will shake himself free from bonds of some kind. This suggests implicitly that Delilah or the man who shaved Samson also bound him in some way while he was still sleeping. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and I will shake myself free of these bonds that someone has put on me]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
יְהוָ֖ה סָ֥ר מֵעָלָֽיו
YHWH left from,with,him
The author is speaking as if Yahweh had physically turned away from Samson. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Yahweh was no longer giving him great strength]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
